Weather in July

July, the same as June, in Westwego, Louisiana, is another tropical summer month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 78.4°F (25.8°C) and 89.2°F (31.8°C).

Temperature

July, with its high-temperature average of 89.2°F (31.8°C) and a low-temperature average of 78.4°F (25.8°C), is the warmest month.

Heat index

For most parts of July, the heat index is calculated to be a scorching 107.6°F (42°C). Implement enhanced safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Sustained activity might result in heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
